I know this is a few months premature, but I'd like to get a tentative head count


I know I am in as is my fishing buddy Mark.

For the love of Pete, its at Emma!

Put me down for 53% In.

Chad

I'm a tentative head....

I am 50/50.

Ted- 100%
Mark- 100%
The Chad- 53%
Brian- tent head
Ag-50%
Mike W-?
August W-?

tumaters are in but might have to squeeze in a basketball game

What date(s) are you thinking of?

watch out for guys with bread ties lol

bread ties or worst cable ties

Jan 13-15, or any combination of those days

january 21st is the first WCC club session @ Emma Long
http://www.wildcarpcompanies.com/wild-carp-companies-for-anglers/Wild-Carp-Club-of-Texas-2012.html

I'm out (for both events). Enjoy yourselves though!

What're the chances of a drawdown this year?

The weeds bad, and they really need to draw it down. But with Travis so low and the drought, I don't know if they'll be able too.

no draw down not enough water in travis.

Kinda what I was afraid of.

50/50 for both events. I need some new PBs.

Whoa! This has gotten out of hand.

I just want a head count.

For sure
Ted
Mark
Mike

Everyone else is tentative


I dont think this event is an official CAG event. I wanted a fish-in at Emma and I put it on here and CAG. Now if CAG wants to sponsor it and help out with the camping fees then I would certainly welcome that. This (to me anyway) is a fishing event. I really dont care if an alphabet soup group wants to headline it. I will still fish at Emma Long that weekend.


Mods, can you please remove the nastyness above?

As far as I can tell this is a non sponsored fish in and with this bickering it should stay that way.Ted made the post and you're both highjacking it.Show some respect for him and get off the soap boxes.It's about fishing not a pissing contest and we're not children.Act your age please.I've met both of you in person and had no problems with either.So let it go and lets get back to the topic of fishing.

ibtl

as far as the fishin goes, im 50/50 i can do one but not both events.

Not sure if I can be there or not just yet.When I know you will.

This sounds like a good event to grab someone new and bring them to to introduce them to the sport we all love.

It will be Nick.Been to a few there myself and there's always a good time to be had by all,old and new to it.

I am 50% in ted,

I've been to one too and it's a great venue. Just watch out for the zip ties if you're staying the weekend

Bottom line is Scott and Mike are great people who want to do good things. The important thing is the events happen. So I find it almost impossible to fault either of them, when most of us do nothing or little to help them.

I don't want to see either of you suspened or banned.

I jumped on the post when I should have bitten my tongue. My bad if anyone got offended by it. Not my intentions.

Add my boy Kevin to the list Ted.

I'm not offended by either of you. I've fished with you both. One of you just step up and let it go, work it out off line, make new posts, whatever. I've no doubt there are sub-issues prior to this post. IMNSHO you both could work with each other and both of you may benefit. Try and forget the past, doubt you can fix what has happened anyway.

Take a breath and work out a future for both of your goals.

need to add really strong zip ties to list to pack lmao.

Well said...

whew.....these posts are insane,,,,,I know Scott, he turned me on to my first Mirror, and I know Mike,,,,,,Both Great guys with differing opinions,,,,,,,I'm going to try to get a conference call going between the 3 of us, and put this baby to rest,,,,,,,We're all here for the same thing,,,,,,fishing enjoyment, and catching those big uns,,, I don't see in either the By laws of CAG, or the mission statement of WCC that our objectives are to kill each other,,
please lets all just hang loose till this simple misunderstanding gets resolved,,,

OH it's me...Neil Stern,,,,forgot my last password and all that jazz so I had to start all over again,,,,

Knock off the garbage, folks. I've removed most of that crud and I don't want to see it back.

It's a post about a Fish In, keep it that way. Scott can offer a date to ensure there's not a conflict or in case folks wanna fish both.

Beyond that, you should both get off each other's backs. It's not good for the thread, the forum, or the sport.

Thanks Starless,,,,,,,I'm trying to resolve the differences as well...These are good people, with differing opinions,,,so I say SO WHAT....let's just bury the hatchets of the past ( not in each others heads) and move on,,,,,,,plenty of room for everyone to be happy, and perhaps in the future plan and coordinate joint events,,,

I know I'd like to get site 11. I will have a pretty big party.

need to make sure that all of us noisy up all night folks are on one end so these old farts can get their beauty rest. Wouldnt want them to get grumpy!

Hahaha...

Steve: Let's drink tonight.
Me: OK
Steve drinks two beers and is asleep at 10 o clock.

There will be plenty of adult beverages flowing at the Big Ted campsite. Mike/Augie, you can get site 10 and we can share bank space all the way down 10-11.

I think I'm going to cook a brisket to soak up all the beer we drink. But site
10 sounds good. Is it January yet ?

Mmmmmm, brisket.

I will have deer sausage galore. I already shot one and plan to have 2 more at least.

Since we are doing this in Jan like a bunch of idjits I better start stocking up on space heaters for my tent, lol. And some waders!

I have 2 that I will bring. Burn ban will likely be in effect still.

I also have a little propane heater a the little propane cannisters are pretty cheap. I already have like 3 of them.

Mark has a space heater as well and a propane heater. We'll be good as long as we dont blow the circuit!

Im gonna let ya know now, if the burn ban is still there then I aint going. No way in hell I gonna go campin in the middle of winter without a campfire!

Cant...hold...my...tongue....



WUSS!

I thought you were in the military!

Yup, and after two tours in the middle east I can handle 125 in the shade but but freezing without a campfire... not my idea of a good time, lol.

I dont lke the cold either, but I am going either way.

Besides, dont they all leave after 10pm?

August I thoughly understand your feelings about campfires,but what are we gonna tell carp dog? That little doggie wants to fish. Don't dissapoint carp dog.

LMAO, you just don't know carp dog, he is a bigger wuss when it comes to the cold than I am. If its anywhere near freezing outside he would rather take a leak on the porch and get in trouble than go the extra 15 feet to the yard, lol.

I'm with August. No fire, no fishing.

I'd rather rent a cabin and sit inside with my transmitter.

I've seen a few people in Emma doing just that, fishing while hiding in their RVs (staying warm) with the transmitter.

I've done the same, running the heater in my car. I think I was more into fishing back then. Now it's not fun, not my kind of fishing.

This is the definition of fair weather fishing

Not when it's so dry they leave the gate open in case of sudden fire, lol.

You guys are NUKKIN FUTZ
at my age I'm gonna need more than a SPACE HEATER

Will watch the weather and check with the Park,,,,If there is no BURN BAN will probably be there,,,,if not,,,,HOT CHOCOLATE time in front of my fireplace at home

We can get carp dog some warm fancy britches like they wear at red bud.

With proper planning and electricty, you can be quite comfy with just a space heater.

Its alright. The less fishermen there are, the more fish I can catch! lol

Yall can drink hot chocolate inside, I will drink it outside right after I reel in a 50# buff!

For all of you tackle tarts and sissy cold boys, see video below:

After seeing the wildfires in and around Austin this year, I hope no one is seriously considering flouting a burn ban, even after 10pm. Emma is like a tinderbox right now and a fire from a stray, windblown ember or spark would take just a few minutes to engulf the park, possibly killing sleeping campers and destroying the park for many years to come.

Have a great time but please don't do anything to endanger lives or the park itself.

Dont worry. Burn ban means burn ban. I have plenty of propane. No worries.

Mike and I are looking into getting our hands on an old school army canvas pavilion thing. Couple of space heaters and room for people to socialize and stay warm. We shall see.

That would work great! With all the heaters mixed in, that will be toasty!

I will rig up some ponchos, as well as have a pop-up deal like last time. If it is not windy, that will come in handy.

Dang! Is it January yet? I can't wait!

Burn Ban for Travs county will be lifted Dec. 14th..we will be able to have ground fires.

There's no more excuses now, Carp dog and August are in!

we need to check with the Park itself,,,,sometimes, just sometimes the Park will have a BAN even tho there is not one on the county,,,I hope it is lifted,,,,wold love to fish

Ted is fish in either way

i got a pair of camo overalls thats good down to 20 degrees.

"By the looks of things, you're pretty cold..."

You just don't say things like that to a man when you are on camera... and He said it several times. He seemed obsessed...
